Christmas Lunch

This was our third Christmas in Brunei. Two years ago we did the Yacht Club on Christmas Day and last year the Empire. This year, we decided to do a "homely" Christmas Lunch and I must say, we couldn't have had a better Christmas Day!We had lovely company, the Saaps, Roses and McLeans; we had absolutely amazing food - turkey, ham, pork and lamb with all the trimmings, roasted and steamed veggies galore, Christmas pudding with brandy custard, pavlova, chocolate cake, Ferrero Rochers in hundreds and other home made goodies, and... lots of tasty sparkling wine! We had such a good time, the day was fantastic! Thank you guys!
